change is gonna do me good.

Everyone always sets new goals for each new year, but how often do they stick to them? Last year I set some goals and I was adamant that I would reach them and be consistent through the entire year. March came, something came up or life got busy and all those goals went out the window. I feel when that happens, it’s easier to blame it on life being busy, or ‘I just don’t have the time’. When in…

Whew, what a year. I cannot believe at how bad I am at keeping up with this 😅 Let’s talk life – this year has been flying by! I feel as though I have had nothing going on or to do, but at the same time, have so many things that are on my roster. Let’s recap 2025: January not much happened. Just coming off of the holidays, it was a month of relaxing and spending Sundays at the hockey rink for…

This year has been my year of travel, concerts, exploring and trying new things! I will have a post in December recapping my year in review, so keep your eye out for that! I am looking forward to the holidays and…

Happy early Fourth of July! Our tradition for the 4th is to head to the lake! We go up every year and celebrate with friends and family. Its a weekend filled with sunshine, laughter, fun, good food and good memories. What are some 4th of July traditions you all enjoy?

How is next weekend already the Fourth of July?! This year has flown by! I feel as though each month is a week long and if I blink too much, I’ll miss something. I was going to write a post and tell you all how my first 6 months of the year went – busy, fun and exciting – but I’ve decided to write up a yearly recap and post it at the end of the year. A year in review if you will. Let me know…

What is a hobby you enjoy? Let’s talk hobbies. I feel as though I have tried many things, yet there are still so many more to explore. Some hobbies I’ve tried: Pottery – loved doing this and would like to take a weekly class Golf – I’ve recently got into golf and it is quite fun. I would like to take golf lessons so I can become better and beat Christian 😆 Hiking – my sister-in-law and I…

I am the type of reader who only likes or reads a certain genre or types of books. That would be anything that is a psychological thriller, mystery or crime novel. As much as I try to stray from my usual genre, I just can’t seem to find another genre that interests me as much as thrillers or mysteries. My favorite books are the ones that have you thinking you know “who dunnit”, then you get to…

I never realized that when I got older that I would spend a lot of my time figuring out what to eat and cook for dinner. I love to cook, but coming up with ideas is harder than I thought. Thank goodness for cookbooks! Below are the seven (7) most repeated meals, with recipes, that Christian and I cook regularly. Brown Sugar Meatloaf 1 pound ground beef 1 TBSP Brown Sugar 1 Egg Ketchup 1…

This year Christian and I decided to buy a home! We want to get out of renting and own something that is ours. More specifically me; I would like to be able to decorate and make modifications or remodel to our house to make it a home. Renting, you can only really decorate vs make modifications/remodel. Similar to anything in life, home buying can be nerve wrecking and stressful. Home buying is a…

It has been 1,576,800 minutes since I first started this blog. That is 3 years; March of 2021 to be exact. My plan for this blog was to post weekly about my life and things I do. Travel, cooking, shopping, lifestyle. I had it all planned out. Even set up a set posting schedule and everything. So what happened? Nothing. I just slowly stopped posting and forgot about it to be honest. I think of…

Where to Eat in Scottsdale, Arizona

Scottsdale has so many great places to eat out at. My bacherlorette party, we decided to grocery shop for food for breakfast and snacks. We just bought a bunch of bagels, muffins, bananas, etc. The first night we arrived in Scottsdale, we decided on just a relaxed night out, so that meant CASINO NIGHT! We went to Casino Arizona and joined in on Bingo Night (see photos below). Dinner at the…
